Hi Abdullaziz,

is a placeholder that the treehouse staff tend to use in a tags. You could replace the '#' with a link to anywhere you'd like. You could even add a link to a section on the same page. If there is another element on the page, for example:

<div id="section"></div>

You could link to the above div by adding an anchor tag like so: 

<a href="#section">This is a link</a>

Hope this helps, Shaun
